This was my third visit in forth years and this place never gets old - it has an amazing warm feel, with an awesome crew! The food and bar is a perfect area to relax, recharge and rest. Plus a local Onsen five minutes walk away or the Hot Tub in the garden!!!!

Where do I even start!In my life I have never experienced the level of hospitality and warmth as I did at The Phat House. I was nervous travelling solo for the first time, but before I even hit Hakuba the team were super helpful, and after being picked up and checked in I was made to feel so welcome and comfortable. Multiple daily transfers to and from the resorts, always done with a smile and stoke for everyone riding.The dorm and rooms are exceptional and clean and the facilities are great. The bar is a fun vibe with plenty of games and people hanging out, but the layout of the building and level of respect of the staff and other guests meant if you weren’t here for a party you could still stay in peace.I could go on for days about how much the Phat House team made my whole trip but all I will say is thank you!!!Can not wait to come back 🤙🏻
